The yacht will contact the supplier, place the order, pay and give the supplier an estimated time of arrival. Yacht will confirm safe arrival when anchored or moored. The supplier can then deliver to the designated safe pick up point and advise yacht of delivery.
During the remainder of the summer, restrictions may remain around access to remote locations and island communities. In response to the Covid-19 pandemic Sail Scotland is opening a FREE web directory within www.sailscotland.co.uk to enable shore-based producers to gain valuable business through the sale of goods to visiting yachts and pleasure craft.

Upon approval, businesses will be able to self-edit a business page to promote product for sale, price, terms that visiting yacht crews can safely purchase and collect from designated local pick up points.
Once the supplier is clear of the area the yacht can send crew over by tender to collect the goods from the safe zone and then immediately return to the yacht. Arrangements will differ from place to place and yacht crews must at all times #RespectTheDestination and supplier should liaise with the local facility manager to agree the safe collection point.
Shop to Ship integrates with the principles within The Safe Sailing Guidelines as part of the National Framework for a recovery in tourism and the recent generated campaign
